Lucky you, basically the current state is: zopectl doesn't work on Windows! But I found out that it's not that hard to enhance it in a way so it does work on Windows... all you need to do is to look into the internals of zopectl and zdaemon combined with how configuration files are parsed at Zope startup... and add some platform specific conditional code. Now after a refreshing my memory it fails on socket handling in zdctl.py in zdaemon on the line (sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_UNIX, socket.SOCK_STREAM)) where socket.AF_UNIX is not defined on Windows. Basically the way Zope is started in non-foreground mode on Unix is different from Windows, where you need to install a service which you can start/stop/restart... > First off, I think ploneenv would need to modify the runzope.bat script so > that it calls the activate script before startup. Wouldn't it be enough to adjust the PYTHONPATH to look into the workingenv directory first? I thought that's the only thing that's really necessary to activate a workingenv?
